Chardinee for the title, but I suppose that's better than letting Skittles or Steve take it. Of course, they're quite likely to take it NEXT time, but one turn at a time will do. Sourwood SPY REPORT Well, what are you looking at, MALCORN? Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see CRYSTAL RAIN win a fight and gain 11 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, DANGEROUS CRIMINAL beat GOLDEN STAIRS and GOLDEN STAIRS lost 3 points. You're breakin' my heart. And it's out with the old, in with the new, as STEVE takes the Title and last week's bar tab from the old Duelmaster. Heh, heh. Kickbacks and bribes, kickbacks and bribes, how else do you think some of these guys win their fights? Skill? Ha! He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward. Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and gone, and get to see if their team cared. We're all going to die in the end, so why worry if the fate catches up with you sooner that later? What does the MALCORN arena have in common with the inns? It's just as comfortable to sleep in either place. Ha ha ha ha! Phlllt! Just had to do that before I leave the fine city of MALCORN. I feel much better now. I see the crowds are getting restless, I must leave now-- Snide Clemens DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME STEVE 5027 17 25 2 106 RAINBOW CONNECTION (503) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME BOWEN 5091 10 4 0 104 SERPENTS' HOLD (510) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SOURWOOD 5047 17 19 1 86 GREENWARDENS (244) SKITTLES 5048 18 16 0 84 RAINBOW CONNECTION (503) HONEYSUCKLE 5038 21 18 0 82 GREENWARDENS (244) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SHANK 5109 7 2 0 56 SERPENTS' HOLD (510) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SUNDOG 5075 6 13 1 32 GREENWARDENS (244) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME GOLDEN STAIRS 5128 2 4 0 21 GREENWARDENS (244) CRYSTAL RAIN 5139 1 0 0 11 GREENWARDENS (244) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.

It's always been a pleasure to deal with you. -- Bobcat, not really a cat (I'm almost sure of that) Somehow, Kung-Fu just seems... unfair. I put in months learning to handle a sword creditably, and then along comes this Convincian goofball and defeats me with NO sword. -- Honeysuckle P.S. And he didn't even TEACH me anything! Shank -- I tried to grip you by the shank, but you did a weird loopy think and slithered loose. Drat. -- Sundog The Mordant Deserter. Well, I feel for him, I truly do, but that doesn't mean I'm going to LOSE for him. No way. -- Golden Stairs, not such a ninny as her teammates think LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS BYE was butchered by SPYMASTER in a 1 minute bloody Dark Arena fight. RAMSEY was slaughtered by SPYMASTER in a 1 minute gruesome Dark Arena battle. SOURWOOD was demolished by STEVE in a 1 minute uneven Title fight. BOWEN bested SKITTLES in a popular 3 minute contest. HONEYSUCKLE savagely defeated CONVICTED ASSASSIN in a 2 minute mismatched match. SHANK vanquished SUNDOG in a 1 minute mismatched fight. GOLDEN STAIRS was overpowered by DANGEROUS CRIMINAL in a 1 minute mismatched brawl. CRYSTAL RAIN defeated PERSISTENT BEGGAR in a 4 minute beginner's melee.
